Sailing Tulip in Greece
Tulip is a 2018 Lagoon 400 S2 with 2 x 45.0 HP engines and a beam of 7.25 m. Two hulls keep her level and stable at anchor, so lunch stays on the table and nights are calm – perfect for quiet island coves and harbour villages. Modern navigation, including an autopilot, makes her easy to handle. Mornings are made for swimming and paddleboarding in glassy water, afternoons for sailing to the next island.
Skipper, Cook & Provisioning
Prefer to relax? A skipper (€215 per day + food) and a cook or hostess (€215 per day + food) are available on request. We can arrange provisioning with fresh Greek produce before you arrive, so the fridge is full and you can sail straight away. The security deposit is €3,000.
